Thanks for the message and I'm glad to hear you are enjoying the culture here at Perforce. With the latest acquisition, we crossed another plateau in growth and our processes need to evolve to support a larger organization. We are also updating a number of processes with AI. Thanks for leaving the message. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

Average pay Good work/life balance

Cons

Terrible management - should be written in caps - JUST TERRIBLE! Occasional layoffs time by time, with no direct reason. They just say one thing in All Hands Meetings, that everything is so awesome and outstanding, fenomenal year, almost in every All Hands meeting - and few months later, when they want to make layoffs - bad year, results are not so good, etc. Very strange management, company just loses talents, event the best ones will be just laid off, they don't care about people at all, although they say they will!

I'm sorry to hear your experience with Perforce hasn't met your expectations. Our All Hands meetings are key to our transparent communication to employees. In those meetings, we report on the good things happening in the company and our performance to our plan. That includes details on when we are not performing to plan, why we're not performing to plan and how we are fixing things. While the business needs to adjust to changes in the industries we serve, I'm happy to say we have done a great job in retaining our top talent with one of the lowest turnover rates in the industry. We've promoted more people this year than ever and will continue to enhance the careers of our employees that are doing great work. The leadership team at Perforce cares deeply about our employees and their success. I'd be happy to talk more to you about your specific situation if you'd like to have a deeper conversation. Feel free to schedule some time with me. ~Jim Cassens, CEO

Pros

- Prague management are nice people - Friendly office atmosphere - No nasty politics or fake toxic culture you will find in other companies. People who were hard to deal with left Blazemeter already. - May be an interesting choice for junior engineers, but has very little to offer to senior engineers. - Jim Cassens, the new CEO seems to be a nice guy. In no other company you will find CEO commenting on Glassdoor.

Cons

- Most key knowledgeable engineers have left Blazemeter in both Israel and Prague. This loss was irreplaceable. You will often get the answer "nobody knows anymore" in this project. This explains the negativity expressed in the review "A Company I Want to Forget". - Prague managers have tried to leave too, interviewed at other companies but failed to pass, that's why they are still there. - If they have a job opening, it's most likely for someone who left. - Seniority levels seem randomly assigned in both Prague and Israel. A number of people are above their skill and others below. - Blazemeter product is too convoluted, a mixture of various technologies, very slow to innovate. The core is in PHP. Do not expect a big contribution or a revolution. If you are looking for easy money it may be ok. - Prague office is very small, perhaps 18 people including management and product. - No long term prospects - Honestly it makes no sense for Perforce to maintain Prague office in its current size.

Thanks for posting here on Glassdoor. We definitely are working hard to create a culture of open communication, friendly work environment, and interesting technology that is making a difference in software development. As you mention, our footprint in Prague is small but it's mighty. I had the good fortune of visiting that office this summer. Terrific people, great leaders who are passionate about the solutions they are supporting. As for BlazeMeter, we have big plans for this solution. Integrations are planned to other solutions that will drive significant value and additional benefits for our customers. We also have additional roadmap items that expand the use of AI within BlazeMeter. The office space in Prague is awesome. Great location, comfortable setting and leadership has made it very comfortable for employees to enjoy their surroundings with a breakroom that doubles as a fun space with games, couches, and all kinds of fun things. I can appreciate BlazeMeter has some technical debt but we are slowing updating the code and will continue to do so over time. I would enjoy an opportunity to speak to you one on one to understand from your point of view where we can improve. Thanks again for the post. ~Jim Cassens, CEO
